Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture (Japanese: 餓狼伝説 THE MOTION PICTURE, Hepburn: Garō Densetsu: The Motion Picture) is a 1994 Japanese animated feature film based on the SNK video game series Fatal Fury originally released in Japan on July 16, 1994, and in Canada on September 19, 1995. Discotek Media released a Blu-ray version on July 25, 2017. It was directed by character designer Masami Ōbari and follows the same continuity as the preceding two TV specials, Fatal Fury: Legend of the Hungry Wolf and Fatal Fury 2: The New Battle, but this movie shifts from arcade canon to an all-new storyline centering on original characters,[1] although many of the characters from the first two Fatal Fury specials make extensive cameo appearances through the film.
The original ending theme in Japanese is "Yoake no Legend" ("Dawn of a Legend") by Kazukiyo Nishikiori of Shonentai. For the North American film release, the song was given the title "Oh Angel", and re-recorded with English lyrics by Canadian singer Warren Stanyer.
